Why isn't this sold yet? :confused:

I guess I may as well ... but it's my choice. I am not a compulsive shopper. I can quit anytime I want ... and it's like $1,375 cheaper than a Denon 4311. :rolleyes:

I just moved the RX-V1800 from my living room to my bedroom, which was replaced by a AVR-4311ci, which is nothing short of amazing! But I need to get this sold so I can replenish my funds that were depleted by getting the Denon. It's in like new condition and was never driven hard, in fact I only used the receiver to power my center and 2 surround speakers, the mains were powered by an external amp.

I just need your PayPal email address. I trust you'll insure the 663 with the shipper. I'll spring for that if need be.

The lack of a phono input put me off until I considered that I could use this for HT and move my RX-V2600 back to ManTown for 2.2 duty. Then I can get rid of all those stupid analog cables ... unless of course I find some reason to keep them in use. The 663 and the 2600 both have a 6-3/4" height (so does the 4311) which is critical for my entertainment center. Anyway, I'm pretty happy about this. Thanks. :)

No reason to use analog inputs on this reciever since it obviously decodes lossless auido via HDMI. I used to have an RX-V1600 and it wouldn't do 7.1 PCM over HDMI, or 1080p, so I had to upgrade to the RX-V1800.

Oh ... it just occurred to me that I can now get Blu-ray audio and use the the analog audio ins for a different player that does DVD-A and SACD. Welcome back DVD-a and SACD! I'm amped up for my front 3 speakers so it's almost like putting the RX-V663 out to pasture ... especially at my listening levels.
